They deleted the term "Motorized Bicycle" because it's too broad a term. I brought this up to the Legislation more than once. Motorized Bicycle means anything with 2 or 3 wheels contacting the road, period. I pointed out that the US Army bought over 100,000 "Motorized Bicycles" for WWI made by Harley Davidson. When you have 3 different classes of vehicles and call them all "Motorized Bicycles" then it's more than confusing and gives the Cops a chance to do a large interpretation to the point where they are almost making up the laws as they go to the point of almost law making through intimidation. That changed as of Oct 2009. Now, the classes are more clearly defined with little wiggle room for either side.
I stated I paid the price. I am the last Low Speed Electric Bicycle operator in the State of Colorado to recieve a ticket for safely operating a LSEB on Public Property. That cost was $42.50 plus a lot of research and working with a couple of Legislators.
This is how you get a positive change. Find a sympathetic legislator and work with them. These folks don't know it all and will tell you they don't. Just make sense and lay it out for them. You honestly think Legislators actually write the laws? They don't. Someone else does and convinces them that the law makes sense.
If you want a law changed for the Gas Powered Engined Bikes, go the same route. It works.
OK. I NEED TO GET BONUS POINTS FOR THIS ONE!!
